It's why outside of McAffrey, we're not really getting that Austin Eckler style just like PPR machine style running backs... Christian McAffrey was the main guy last year and he had over 900 receiving yards. I mean, that's that's incredible.
STACKED’s take
Positive signalProjection
McAffrey's 900+ receiving yards exemplify elite RB receiving upside.
McAffrey is the rare exception to the trend of declining PPR-heavy RB archetypes in the modern NFL. He had over 900 receiving yards last year, which is elite fantasy production comparable to top-tier wide receiver seasons. This demonstrates the elite upside available when a running back combines high target volume with strong air yards. McAffrey was the primary receiving back for the 49ers with this high-volume, high-air-yards role, establishing a benchmark for elite RB receiving value and demonstrating the fantasy ceiling when a pass-catching RB gets both volume and depth-of-target opportunity.
